'Left out of disgust, not fear': Raghav Chadha attacks AAP over Sheesh Mahal 2.0 after joining BJP

In India on April 25, 2026, Raghav Chadha, who led an exodus of AAP members to the BJP the day before, attacked Kejriwal over “Sheesh Mahal 2,” a reference to Kejriwal's new home. It was his first attack since the BJP merger. Chadha said he left “out of disgust, not fear.” The BJP says Kejriwal spent private money on “Sheesh Mahal 2,” which AAP calls “fake.”

Anna Hazare held AAP responsible for six Rajya Sabha MPs joining the BJP. AAP will write to the Rajya Sabha Chairman demanding the disqualification of the MPs who crossed over, and faces a weakened road to the 2027 Punjab Assembly election.
